HEBREW

Hebrew is the main official language of Israel.

It is referred to as ' the language of the Bible', 'the Holy Language' (in Hebrew לשון הקודש - pronounced - lashon hakodesh) and the ' native language of Israel'.

It has 22 letters. Five of the letters change their form at the end of a word.

The language has male and female forms of both verbs and nouns.

There are no capital letters in Hebrew.

Hebrew is written from right to left, however, the numbers stay from left to right.

NUMBERS - Numbers are also in male or female depending on what the subject or object is. We will start from 0-20 using the masculine version. The female version basically changes the end sound to a "ah' sound. For example 3 shalosh (male) shlosha (female).
